How does music play a part in religious ceremonies?

Answer 1

Singing to the Lord or music in general is a form of worship. When you sing in church, you do not just sing and join the choir, but you prasie God with your voice, music, and rhytm. It's amazing how many people (mostly unbelievers) can sing their hearts out to worldly music, even jumping and raising their hands, but they can't even sing to praise the Lord who gave up His life to save theirs. What a shame. ;

Answer 3

I think music does affect religion.

Music and religion come from the same backgound. Music came from people's working. The ancesters used music to encourage themselves in their hard work, sometimes even comfort themselves. And religion also come from this similar background. In those hard years, when peasants were exploited by the governments and nobles, they had to create a religion to make themselves believe that they would have afterlives. So because of the similar backgrounds, music and religion often combine together. Then we see chorus in Christian churches and prayer songs in Buddism temples.

Moreover, music is like the key and help to open our souls. This is what we need in religion. People who pray open their soul to their gods (of different religions) to communicate with them. So in another word, music helps people pray.
